That Day ...
Once upon a time ...
You were living life just fine.
But, the sky, that day
Was a dark, dreary gray.
Then, in the blink of an eye ...
You became a very different guy.
No fault of your own
You were simply headed home.
A victim of circumstance ...
You really had no chance.
If I had the power to change ...
That day, I would surely rearrange.
Once upon a time, you had it made, everyday.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it was taken away.
You were living life just fine.
But, the sky, that day
Was a dark, dreary gray.
Then, in the blink of an eye ...
You became a very different guy.
No fault of your own
You were simply headed home.
A victim of circumstance ...
You really had no chance.
If I had the power to change ...
That day, I would surely rearrange.
Once upon a time, you had it made, everyday.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it was taken away.

However, it is not about relationships in the sense you are thinking.
Instead, it is about a tragedy of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
In fact, it does not happen to all of us, to this extent - thankfully.
And it is sad, you are right.
He exists.
Thank you.
I thank you, swade.
All truth.
It is so very sad ... true.
Thanks.
and you too
